...But shouldn't we keep labels that are already used into 
pipelines ? E.g :

<map:read src="docs/{1}.doc" label="raw, xdoc"/>
<map:generate src="docs/{1}.doc" type="word2xml" label="raw"/>
<map:transform src="xword2xdoc.xsl" label="xdoc"/>


If it's this way I'd prefer "unless-label" in map:read to make it 
clear.

Or maybe

  <map:read src="docs/{1}.doc" unless-label="*"/>

would do, meaning "use this unless any views are requested"
(and * would be the only allowed value).

Any other proposal or opinion on this subject before we start a vote ? 


Can't you just enable generators in map:view in case when view starts 
with reader? 


No, since views "capture" the (XML) output at certain points of the 
pipeline to provide a different formatting. E.g. the processing for the 
"indexable-content" view is the same for all URIs, be them XML pipelines 
or a single reader.

So there's no way other than having a generator _before_ jumping to the 
view, feeding that view with the kind of XML content it expects.
